Dear John,

A new study published by the Fraser Institute today finds that Australia spends slightly less on its universal health care as a share of its economy, but routinely outperforms Canada on key health indicators.

Australia and Canada are very similar in many respects.

But unlike in Canada, private hospitals play a fundamental role in Australia’s universal health-care framework.

It’s important to understand that other countries deliver universal health care differently, and often with better results.

Read the full study here, and be sure to share it with anyone you think might be interested.

Sincerely,

Niels Veldhuis
President
The Fraser Institute
